Birthdays

Although today is Stephen King’s birthday (he’s turning 71), he probably wouldn’t mind if we instead pay homage to H. G. Wells, who was born on this day in 1866 in Bromley, Kent, England. Considered one of the fathers of science fiction for works such as The Time Machine, The Island of Doctor Moreau, The Invisible Man and The War of the Worlds, he also wrote works of history, politics, and social commentary, and textbooks and rules for war games. Were it not for an accident at age 8 that kept him bedridden with a broken leg, he may not have been a writer, for that is when he fell in love with reading. He lived to age 79, when he died in London of unspecified causes.
